Love the Lord your God with all your passion and prayer and intelligence. Love others as well as you love yourself.
Christianity, if false, is not important. If Christianity is true, however, it is of infinite importance. What it cannot be is moderately important.
Religion is the sigh of the oppressed creature, the heart of a heartless world, and the soul of soulless conditions. It is the opium of the people.
Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.
The thing the sixties did was to show us the possibilities and the responsibility that we all had. It wasn't the answer. It just gave us a glimpse of the possibility.
I find distasteful the traditional idea of Christianity which preaches the resurrection of the body. Frankly, I see my body as more of a limitation than a virtue, and I will be glad to be free of it rather than having to continue to cart it around. I prefer to believe that souls can exist independently from bodies.
Who is the most favoured of God? He from whom the greatest good comes to His creatures.

The chains of habit are too weak to be felt until they are too strong to be broken.
On earth there is no heaven, but there are pieces of it.
If you have a particular faith or religion, that is good. But you can survive without it.

God is not willing to do everything, and thus take away our free will and that share of glory which belongs to us
Do not abandon yourselves to despair. We are the Easter people and hallelujah is our song.
God's house must be clean, otherwise, God will just run away.
A man's greatness is to be measured by his capacity for communion with others.
If God did not exist, it would be necessary to invent him.
That man has reached immortality who is disturbed by nothing material.
As a well spent day brings happy sleep, so life well used brings happy death.
